Forums - Music - Linkin Park Singer Chester Bennington Found Dead From Apparent Suicide

This is very sad news, the fact he leave behind children is more shocking. His issues must have been deeper than people could have ever imagined.



Hmm, pie.

I still can't believe it.
His voice is such a big part of my childhood.
R.I.P Chester, may you find redemption in heaven.



Heard the news over the radio yesterday and it felt so surreal that it happened. Never would I have imagined this would happen to a member of Linkin Park, much less Chester himself. It is unfortunate he decided to go that route, but I genuinely hope Chester Bennington can Rest in Peace.

And the people here who loved his music?  The people here who might be struggling with their own despression and have used this man's music to keep fighting? Do you care about them and what they want?  

Well for those struggling with depression i hope they get help and can feel better. To them this is a big loss and it sucks that it makes them feel worse but if the guy killed himself theres probably a good reason and im happy for him that if he was suffering he did what he felt he had to. Still sucks for those affected.

You know, I can understand wanting attention, hell I am a bit of an attention whore myself, but is it really a good idea to do it here?

Well excuse me for sharing an opinion.

Depression to the point of suicide is generally never an idea they would make. Extreme depression is literally a mental illness. Please think before posting

Why should they have to struggle with extreme depression when they can end their life? He still had the choice to live or end it and I support what ever choice he made. If he wanted to die then I'm happy for him.



Dammit, I got bummed about Chester all over again when I went to my room and saw my old Linkin Park poster on my wall, realizing I've been sleeping pretty much directly under his photo for like the past 15 years. Creeps me out a bit..

Yeah its quite clear the band had a ton of fans.

Not very hard core fans but numb and in the end are classics

Any i fell like i should apologize to anyone that was offended by my comments.

Depression is not something you fucking choose to have! It's not like you are going to kill yourself just for the fun of it. Show some respect towards the people who love him and lost him. 

 

He did.
